SYSTEMS AND METHOD FOR RENDERING OF VIRTUAL OBJECTS
An augment reality (AR) system captures an image of a physical environment. The AR system identifies an object in the captured image to serve as an anchor point. The AR system calculates a distance between the identified object and an AR display device that comprises left and right displays. The AR system identifying a virtual object associated with the anchor point. The AR system then generates for simultaneous display: (a) a first separate image of the virtual object on the left display of the AR device, and (b) a second separate image of the virtual object on the right display of the AR device, such that apparent distance of the virtual object of the composite image of the first separate image and the second separate image is set to the calculated distance between the identified object and the AR display device.
